Dr. Michelle Vosburg brought compassion and peace to our family during this difficult time. It was a very hard decision to make to end the suffering of Slayer, our senior dog with cancer, but we knew we had to and wanted our old boy to be as comfortable as possible. Slayer always hated the vet office, and we didn't want his last moments to be filled with anxiety and fear, so we chose for him to pass in the comfort and familiarity of home. We are glad and relieved that we had this option. Dr. Michelle guided us through the process, let us take all the time we needed at our own pace, and helped us create some personal mementos as well. We thank her for that and highly recommend her to those who want the same peace and dignity for their ailing pets. RIP Slayer.
Dr Vernon was great! We knew it was time to say goodbye, but she took time to discuss the situation and confirmed we were correct, in our assessment of our girl. She allowed us time and didn't rush the process. She also explained everything we needed to know, along the way. Thank you, for making that really hard day a little easier. Brendan and Andrea Austin Peoria, AZ
Dr. Gordon performed the euthanasia for my sweet soul dog of 16 years. It was the most peaceful experience I could’ve asked for. She knew exactly what to say and created such a calm environment to spend our final moments together. I’m very grateful for her service.
I can't say enough fabulous things about Dr. Jessica Pruitt! It was a hard decision (as it always will be) when its time for our "buddies" to have to leave us:( but Dr. Jessica is so gentle and kind. She explains everything, is very patient and my Molly just warmed right up to her which made things even easier. I can't express the gratitude to Dr. Jessica enough as she made this as peaceful as can be for all of us:) Thank you Dr. Jessica!
Dr. Sara Gardhaouse has an amazing aura about her. In such an Emotinal time she radiates warmth and kindness to help ease the situations hardness. I would gladly refer this company to help with the passing of any fur baby in their own home.
Dr. Christina was exceptional, caring, and compassionate during the passing of our beloved Sadie. Ww truly appreciated the calm and comforting manner during the entire process. Thank you Dr. Christina.
I cannot express enough the gratitude I feel for Dr. Lisa Feig. It was heart wrenching knowing I had to say goodbye to my precious Dottie before she began to suffer. We loved her so much. With that said, Dr. Lisa Feig made the experience so much easier and peaceful for our sweet girl. I knew Dottie was not in pain and crossed over in the most peaceful way. Dr. Feig is the most compassionate, caring, thoughtful doctor anyone could ask for. Anyone who has Dr. Feig in their life as wife, mother, daughter, friend--is an extremely lucky person. She was so giving of her time and patience. I recommend at home euthanasia to everyone. Having your loved one home, comfortable in their surroundings is really the best option. I hated the idea of her being at a hospital or vet clinic in a sterile environment. I got to hold her and tell her how pretty she was and how loved she was. And all the while, Dr. Feig demonstrated such genuine compassion. My fiancé and I were blown away. It takes a special person to do this type of job. And Dr. Lisa Feig more than meets that requirement. A million thanks to her and Coda Pet.
Dr. Phillips was an amazing soul to have help us with our 14 year old love, Raleigh. I did it know such a service existed until we needed it. And with Raleigh’s quick decline, we were able to arrange his passing within 24 hours. Dr. Phillips took care of every detail and it was such a relief. Thank you so much for being with us and helping Raleigh - forever grateful.
Dr.Duncan was compassionate, kind, and thoughtful. She helped us through the process step by step of saying goodbye to our beloved furry family member. Thank you Dr. Duncan.
Dr. Lisa Stadler was nothing short of amazing when coming into our home. She was very informative while still keeping in mind the sensitive atmosphere of the room. She was gentle, very caring and gave us time before and after every step of saying goodbye to our sweet boy. I’m what you’d call a crazy cat mom, and was very hesitant to have somebody else drive his body to get cremated but after meeting Dr. Lisa Stadler I knew he was in good hands. It’s huge for me to walk away from my pet in someone else’s arms, even after life. But she is a very well trusted heart in our home from now on. I recommend Dr. Stadler to any and all
Dr. Sarah Clem was amazing. What a beautiful gift she gives to families and their beloved pets. Being able to say goodbye at home without the stress of getting in the car and going to the vet was priceless for us. Dr. Sarah is just an amazing person and the perfect person to walk you through such a difficult experience. She truly cares. She wanted to hear stories about our precious Bailey and looked at photos and videos. It is really difficult to be so emotionally vulnerable with a stranger, but she did not feel like a stranger at all and made the experience as bearable as it could possibly be.
We decided to use CodaPet when it was time for us to make that decision for our sweet 14 year old St Bernard, Fiona. It was the best thing we could have done. Dr Jason Doolittle made sure the experience was peaceful and went at a pace we were comfortable with. He explained in detail everything that would happen and was very gentle with Fiona. Thank you for providing a service that allows our fur family to go peacefully in their homes surrounded by comforting faces and love.
Dr. Sarah Clem was very kind and gentle during such a difficult time. She made saying goodbye to our beloved Misty of 16 years peaceful and comfortable for our family. We are so grateful for her compassion and care. Sincerely, Susie Borneman Silva SB FARMS LLC
Dr. Jen was so kind. It was so hard for us to have to say goodbye to our sweet little Russell but she was very caring and patient. We chose cremation and we got him back in about a week. The options of urns was nice and we received a very sweet card from Dr. Jen. I would definitely recommend Dr. Jen with CodaPet to care of you.
Dr. Bean and Eddie were incredibly kind, gentle, and compassionate with our sweet girl, Lettie. From the moment they arrived, she welcomed them in her own sweet way—bringing one a toy and the other my boot. It was clear she felt safe and at ease. Because of them, she had a peaceful and beautiful final day, and I truly couldn’t have asked for a more loving send-off for my soul dog. We shared nearly 13 wonderful years together, and I’ll forever cherish every moment—from finding her alone by the lake to being by her side as she took her final breath, surrounded by people who loved her. Thank you for making her comfortable and cared for in her last moments. It meant everything to us.
This is the 2nd time we have used Dr. Danielle Jackson. She is kind, compassionate and we would highly recommend her to anyone. Thank you again Dr. Jackson!
Faced the difficult decision to euthanize our beloved 18 year old Papillon and used Codapet to do it in our home as our dog hated to go to the vet. Dr. Katie Todd arrived and explained in detail the process, gave us plenty of time to say our goodbyes, and made the process as easy as possible. She was very reassuring to my children that we had made the right decision and explained all the options for taking care of the remains and provided us with keepsakes to ease the family’s pain. Thank you so much Dr.Todd in doing what has to be one of the world’s toughest jobs!
Mac was my first pet- my kitty cat of 18 years. I consider myself very fortunate to have had him as a buddy for so long. So when he showed signs of his time being up, I knew from a friend -in home pet euthanasia- was a peaceful goodbye. Dr. John Murray was beyond thoughtful and professional with amazing bedside manner. Mac had a wonderful last day at home and I held him in my arms as we said goodbye. It was beyond hard, but I also wouldn’t have it any other way looking back. Mac hated his car carrier, the car, a vet office is so cold. We were in our beautiful, sunny room, comfortable and well, I’d want to go the same way! Thank you again for being so wonderful to our sweet baby.
Dr. Kim was an absolute angel! She made the passing of our sweet Belle (15 year old blue tick) so much easier. Her compassion and just overall presence during such a hard time was so comforting. I will be recommending the at home service to anyone I know who has an elderly dog.
We had to say goodbye to our pup Leo, who we had for 16 years, and it was one of the most painful things I ever had to do. Leo had advanced kidney disease and his health quickly deteriorated. We had scheduled a Coda Appointment with Dr. Derecka Alexander for a Tuesday, but Leo’s health took a turn for the worse on a Sunday. I emailed Coda Pet to ask if there was any possibility any Vet could come out sooner. Dr. Alexander immediately contacted me and made herself available in our time of need. We were so appreciative of Dr. Alexander’s compassion and kindness in helping our beloved pup Leo cross over the rainbow bridge, especially after it became urgent. She made a very difficult experience of us having to say goodbye to our pup more manageable. We chose to get a Vet to come to our home for our final goodbye to our Leo because we wanted him to be surrounded by the warmth of our love, the comfort of his family, and the smells and sounds he has always known. I wanted his last memories to be of us — his family — holding him, kissing him, thanking him. Thank you, Dr. Alexander, for allowing us to provide that to our pup Leo.
Dr. Stukey was so amazingly kind, patient, and caring! She created such a gentle way to say goodbye during a very difficult experience. If you are finding yourself at the tough position of having to say goodbye to a beloved pet, she is the vet to help your loved one cross the bridge. ♥️
Dr. Katie Todd was so unbelievably kind & compassionate. She made an absolutely awful experience as peaceful & supportive as was possible. We are so grateful for her service.
Best decision ever. While my heart is broken, this option of a kind, gentle passing in our home, with no anxiety for my sweet girl was a blessing for both of us. Dr. Gibson was so sweet and compassionate. It is obvious she was born to do exactly this. Her respect for my baby was so comforting. I won't ever go a different route again.
If we could rate Dr.Bailey 10 stars we would. Our elderly greyhound became ill on Saturday and we knew it was her time. We reached out to Dr. Bailey around 5 pm for availability and she was able to schedule for 9 am the following day. At 9 am exactly she showed up and entered our home with her supplies and plenty of dog treats. Breezy never had to leave her chair through the entire procedure. She had a comfortable and dignified final moments and went to sleep in he happy place. We have had many dogs over the years and this is the first time we've used at home services. Going forward, we will use Dr.Bailey again if possible. Sincerely, Mike and Cybele Cook
The form for the service was very easy to complete. I appreciated this since making this decision was very difficult and I was fraught with emotion. I wanted my beloved cat Buddy to have a pain free transition at our home. He was 18 years. His decline was rapid; he became extremely ill in the span of a week with advanced kidney disease. Dr. Lutri was so gentle and loving to Buddy. She explained every step of the process and asked me before each step if I was ready to move to the next. Dr. Lutri was gracious, kind, and compassionate. She has the most peaceful, calm, loving presence and a profound caring for the pets she serves and their pet guardians. She comforted me greatly as she took care of my magnificent boy. She genuinely understood the magical connection I had with Buddy and treated him so tenderly when she put his sweet body into a beautiful bed to transport him the the crematorium. I felt like Dr. Lutri was an angel sent to me in my dire time of need and loss. She was exceptional in every way. She is a talented doctor overflowing with empathy and understanding who is beautiful inside and out.
No one wants bad news about their dog. When we learned of Yoshi’s terminal cancer diagnosis very late on, I had to make the impossible choice. To send not only my friend- but my psychiatric service animal to the rainbow bridge. I cannot say enough good things about Dr. John. I never had to make this type of decision before in my life and making it within weeks of thinking your doggo is just fine to this, well I don’t wish that on anyone. This man was the kindest, gentle soul I have ever encountered. I had a lot of guilt about doing this especially on a “good day” for my Yoshi, but today I woke up and knew I made the right decision for him. After Yoshi passed, Dr. John packed up Yoshi when leaving to where he looked like he was just going for one last car ride and I can’t explain how much that meant to us. He communicated amazing with us from when I made the appointment throughout the whole process and in his words, “reunited us with Yoshi” as soon as he was ready. Thank you so much for taking care of us and not rushing anything and for the beautiful way you returned his remains to us. You will always hold a place in this families heart for who you are and how you helped. Mahalo nui ❤️🌈
Dr brandon meadows and his assistance were amazing. Their kindness,compassion and dedication allow us to give Yugi eternal rest. Being older and disabled we were with yugi as she slipped away over rainbow bridge. Thank you from bottom of our hearts! We are greatful. Sincerely . Marcelle, Jim and friends
Dr. Lisa made herself available for a last-minute urgent call for us and she couldn’t have been more lovely and caring. This is obviously a challenging and sad time for anyone in the position to call. She treated it with reverence and kindness. Feel lucky to have had her.
Dr. Roberts was as amazing as we hoped. In such a sad time, she help not only our "little buddy" Joey, but our entire family. We are so grateful for her compassion and caring. She allowed us all the time we needed to say goodbye to Joey. We cant thank her enough for being so compassionate.
Dr. Alexander could not have been any more respectful. She was compassionate and polite. I felt that I was given as much time as I needed to say my last goodbye to my baby. Lola was handled with love, care and respect. Thank you, Dr. Alexander.
Words cannot describe how truly amazing Dr. Lara Allison is and how lucky we feel that she was the vet who helped us during an extremely difficult time. The amount of love, kindess, and patience she showed us during the at home euthanasia of our beloved cat is something we will never forget. Dr. Allison took the time to let us share photos and stories with her before starting, and put our minds at ease by explaining the process step by step. After the euthanasia was completed she gave us ample time to say our goodbyes in private. She communicated every step of the way regarding the cremation and hand delivered our sweet boys ashes back to us 2 weeks later. She turned what we thought would be an extremely stressful experience into something so peaceful and full of love. I could not imagine and more beautiful send off or one more fitting for a cat we cherished and loved for 22 beautiful years. I cannot recommend her enough to anyone going through this difficult process. I'm thankful humans like her exist and that she has dedicated her life to helping pet parents in need.
She was excellent thru the entire devastating process. Stormy's final journey was quick and painless for her, and as comforting as possible under the circumstances for us. We highly recommend Dr. Kim Patterson....... Judy & Ron
We are so incredibly grateful to Dr. Ayala for the compassion and care she showed during one of the hardest moments of our lives. Saying goodbye to Percy at home, in a space he knew and loved, meant everything to us. Dr. Ayala was gentle, patient, and deeply kind from the moment she arrived. She took the time to explain everything and never rushed us, giving us the space we needed to be with Percy and say goodbye in our own way. This experience was incredibly painful, but her empathy and presence brought a sense of peace and dignity that we will never forget. We will always be thankful for how she cared not only for Percy, but for our family.
Dr. Lori was calm, caring, and compassionate on a very difficult day. She helped my little 14-year-old Gracie have a peaceful passing at home, surrounded by everything that had always been familiar to her and, with her littermate present. This process was so much more peaceful than taking that final ride to the vet's office. I am so grateful to Dr. Lori for her kindness and her calm demeanor, and for providing this compassionate service that helped her littermate and me say goodbye in the most peaceful and loving way that we could
Dr. Amanda Harper was the epitome of professionalism. She was kind and took her time with us and our dog. Smokey was relaxed and felt very loved, at home, with his family. I would never choose to do it differently if we were ever to be in that situation again. This service made a terrible situation as easy as it could ever be. Highly recommend to all my pet-loving friends.
Dr. Delia Gregory-Macdonald is an angel on Earth. The time came to put down our 13 year old family dog. I wanted this to be done in the familiar comfort of our home. Dr Delia came to our house shortly after I reached out. She was kind and compassionate and made Mia’s transition calm, pain free and peaceful. She is an amazing human and is excellent at what she does. I am so grateful. Thank you so much Dr Delia.
We are so grateful that Dr. Courtney White was available to us, last minute nonetheless. We were able to say goodbye to our precious boy Radar in his favorite spot in our backyard. Dr. White was so kind and compassionate, explaining the process as it progressed, allowing us to make the decisions we could. She truly understood the bond we had with our boy. We will cherish the memory of him forever ❤️
The team at CodaPet made all the difference in the world. The process was smooth and they were readily available to answer any questions. Dr. Katie Simpson was so considerate, gentle, and kind. She and her team made what was a very hard day a little bit better.
Dr. Delia is truly one of the most amazing people I have ever met. She gave us peace of mind by answering all of our questions and throughly explaining what our baby girl was experiencing. We are so happy that our Mira was surrounded by love and comfort in her final moments.
Because of the heartbreaking work you perform you and all the other vets and techs out there are God's angels.You see the begining and you see the end,when your needed most. Thank you.
Saying goodbye to our beloved dachshund Lily was one of the most painful moments of our lives, but thanks to Dr. Lisa Stadler with CodaPet, it was also one of the most peaceful and compassionate. Dr. Lisa, a retired veterinarian, brought a gentle presence and deep empathy into our home—qualities that made an unbearable day a little more bearable. Her kindness and professionalism helped guide my wife and me through the process with grace and dignity. We are overwhelmingly grateful that Lily was able to pass in the comfort of her home, surrounded by the space and the things she loved most. Holding her in my arms as she went peacefully was a blessing I will never forget. The communication with CodaPet was seamless, and scheduling the appointment was simple—something I deeply appreciated during such an emotionally difficult time. I cannot recommend CodaPet and Dr. Lisa more highly. Their service was not just professional—it was personal, compassionate, and deeply respectful. Thank you for being part of Lily’s journey, and ours. You will forever hold a place in our hearts.
Dr. Duvall did a fantastic job easing our dog out of this world, and in tending to our human needs and concerns as well. She really went the extra mile and was full of compassion for all of us. I can't imagine how the inherently difficult situation could have been made any easier.
It is never easy to say goodbye to our pets, who are truly a member of the family. Having this opportunity to have a vet come to my home, was such a blessing. Karen was wonderful! I couldn't have asked for or wanted for anything better. She was so patient, caring and kind. Her support and concern for Marley bear and myself, priceless! I am forever grateful that Dr. Karen Whala came for us on our day of need. She's the BEST!! Thank you, Susan Anderton
During this very difficult time and decision, I am so grateful to have found Dr. Magnotta. Her communication with me about the process as well as talking about my daughter and her concerns from the moment I scheduled was amazing. When she arrived through the time she left, her calming presence and explanation of literally everything that was occurring allowed for both my daughter and I to be present while our Sophia passed in the most peaceful way. I have been sharing with others this experience and would highly recommend Dr Magnotta.
Dr. Delia could not have been more compassionate in her work with me and my dog. Her presence, gentleness and pacing all contributed to a peaceful process at this heartbreaking time. Would recommend her to anyone facing the same situation.
This process was made so much easier by Dr Meadows’ team. I’m so glad Burnsie was able to pass at home with familiar surroundings. We never felt rushed, just supported and cared for. I recommend Brandon Meadows wholeheartedly.
Wanda was 14 years old. She was such a big part of our family, we couldn’t imagine saying goodbye to her at the vet’s office. Everyone was here with her, including Kiko our 6 year old rescue. Dr John was everything we needed that day. Patient, understanding, compassionate and professional. Thank you to Dr John and Codapet, especially for the questionnaire to help understand if it was time to say goodbye. Wanda runs free now with Mel and Bruiser. Goodbye girl.
We had to say goodbye to our dog of 12 years, Mila, suddenly. Dr Alexander who came to our home was compassionate, patient, and gentle during an incredibly painful moment. She explained everything clearly, gave us time, and treated Mila with dignity and care. As a family with two young children, that level of kindness mattered deeply to us. We are grateful for the support we received during such a difficult goodbye.
We are deeply thankful to Dr. Shannon Nakaya for the care and compassion she showed during our beloved dog Giggsy’s final moments. Saying goodbye was an incredibly painful decision and a very difficult day for us, but her kindness, patience, and gentle approach helped ease the burden. Dr. Nakaya guided us through the process with understanding and treated Giggsy with such tenderness and respect. Her compassion and professionalism truly made all the difference during this heartbreaking time.
Dr. Mitchell was wonderful. She was very caring with our pet and our family durning a difficult time. I would highly recommend Dr. Mitchell.
Dr. Pruett is absolutely amazing. We were blessed that she was the vet to come and be there with us. She has known DJ since she was a puppy so for her to hear a familiar voice with me in the end was one of the best blessing ever. We both knew we were in the best hands and I knew DJ would be taken care of. I can never thank her enough.
In my life I have been blessed to have a few dogs. Saying goodbye is part of the price we pay. Dr. Gordon made this horrible time easier. I will be eternally grateful for the kindness and compassion she showed not only our precious Baby Girl but also us.
Dr. Lara was so very kind, patient and compassionate. We had family gathered to say goodbye to our sweet cat Cleo. She gave us time and space to love one her and say goodbye our way. DR. Lara after care was beautiful she sent us a beautiful card to us all which was lovely, in addition brought a memorial candle with pictures of Cleo and stating her birth and death dates.Thank you Dr. Lara your kindness and compassion was greatly appreciated.
Dr. Katie Todd was so kind and informative. She explained the process and answered all of our questions. Our sweet girl is at peace and out of pain and I couldn't have asked for a better experience for her.
Dr. Pilago showed so much care and compassion when we had to make the painful decision to put our handsome pup Rodney to sleep. I highly recommend her.
So helpful, compassionate and patient as well as competent, skilled and professional. She tended to the needs of our kitty as well as mine through the entire process. She accommodating all my crying and need to hold Bandit until the end. I highly recommend her.
Dr. Katie was amazing! She handled everything so professionally yet personally too. Ruger will be so missed by many (as she can attest to, she said it was the biggest crowd she'd had, there were 9 of us) and I will never take my pets to a cold impersonal clinic to pass if I can help it. Having your pet pass at home where they're comfortable and familiar was such a blessing!
Highly recommend Dr Jackson she was very helpful and informative , answered all questions and concerns. She made an incredibly hard and private moment as comforting as possible. She treated our Bella with such care and kindness. Thank you Dr Jackson for all that you do 💜🌈🪽🕊️🐾
Dr. Murray is one of the kindest and compassionate vets. He thinks of things I never thought of. Example, not ringing the doorbell or knocking on the door when he arrived . This was to avoid upsetting Jet. Sent a text message instead. He speaks in a calm and soft tone. He explained what to expect and kept his bag out of our sight. Jet passed peacefully in his home. Highly recommend Dr. Murray. 🌈
We suddenly found ourselves in an unbearable situation with our 17-year-old dog, Teddy. His health declined so quickly, and we had to rush to find someone who could help us say goodbye at home. Thankfully, we were able to book an appointment with Dr. Lisa. She came to our house with such humility, patience, and compassion. She listened as we cried and asked a million questions, gently reassuring us that we were doing the right thing for our sweet boy. She never rushed us, she gave us the space and time we needed to say goodbye. As heartbreaking as it was, Teddy passed peacefully and comfortably in our arms. Dr. Lisa treated him with love, dignity, and respect, and made sure he was safely transported for cremation. She even followed up with us afterward to reassure us he had arrived where he needed to go. Losing Teddy has been one of the hardest things we’ve ever gone through, but we have no regrets choosing Dr. Lisa. She gave our boy the most loving, gentle passing we could have hoped for.
Dr. Thomason was so supportive and helpful during such an incredibly hard time. I can't say enough about what an amazing vet she is. RIP Lovely Lolita
Such a great experience, during such a difficult event. Dr. Anna Peterson was incredible. So kind, kept things light, and was so skilled. Thank you!
It's the service you never want but when it comes I was so thankful for Dr. Todd. She was so compassionate and patient with us. Our sweet cat was able to cross the rainbow bridge in the comfort of his home without the stress of being moved to a vets office in his final hours. She even brought his ashes back to us. I can't thank her enough for this. We also had to move his appointment up and she was quick to move to his needs. I hope I don't need their services for a long time for my other fur babies but I will use her again in the very, very distant future.
When Dr. Lara arrived, she took time with Hannah so that she felt comfortable with her. There was no rush. She made the visit all about Hannah's feelings , which impressed me. I felt the home euthanasia was the best way to honor Hannah. Dr. Lara Allison was gentle and empathetic during her visit. Dr. Allison contacted me several times before and after her visit. So, I felt like I knew her before we met in person. That made a difference to me.
Dr. Simpson was a literal angel on earth as she helped our elderly dog, Penny, transition. She was the most sweet, kind, and patient vet I had ever met. She was with us almost 90 minutes and gave us all the time we needed to walk through such an emotionally difficult process. She listened to our stories about Penny and was so incredibly compassionate and supportive. She even mailed us a card recounting in detail her enjoyment of the stories we shared of Penny’s adventures with us. We are forever grateful to Dr. Simpson and would wholeheartedly recommend her for anyone who is facing the difficult decision of saying goodbye to their fur baby.
Dr. Silberman and his wife could not have made my sister and I any more comfortable with the ordeal with Roxy. They are so kind and compassionate about what they do. Thank you very much. We will miss our Pretty girl Roxy..
This was definitely the way to give your baby wings. My dog was very afraid of the vet office, and i did not want him to be on his last day on earth. Dr Anna was on time, very loving, caring and made us all feel at ease with going forward. She even brought a treat for him, and my very usually picky dog ate it! She was amazing, and I would definitely call on her again. Thank you, Dr Anna. The Hallfrisch's.
Lane was amazing! We had to call him in early and he was able to arrive quick enough to humanely and compassionately guide Carly into peace. I cannot imagine a better experience through such a difficult situation.
She was very sweet with our children and allowed them time to say goodbye, and then gave each of them a clipping of fur in a little bag. She was patient and gave us space. We were really grateful to have her in our home walking us through the process.
I was struggling to find a vet to come out on a weekend to put down my Pearl who was struggling. I even posted in a local rescue group asking for advice. I then ran across CodaPet, it said Dr Ayala was available. I checked back on my post and within those few minutes Dr Ayala was recommended by many. When Dr Ayala showed up I was sitting out front with my Pearl, we went to the backyard. She was very gentle explaining things to me, and very patient as I held my beautiful girl as she left. Thank you for how amazing you were. Really appreciate it. And so sorry for my screaming as my husband walked you back out.... Holding her...I lost it...
We unfortunately had to make the heartbreaking decision to say goodbye to our 17-year-old dog, Rosy. When Dr. Sarah Warren arrived, she immediately embraced my parents with a hug as if she were an old friend. From the moment she came to Rosy and me, she gave off such a calm, loving, and comforting presence that even in one of the most painful moments of our lives, she brought us peace. She explained the entire process with such respect, compassion, and clarity. She climbed onto the bed with Rosy and me, gently gave her sedation, pet her, talked to her, and comforted not only us, but Rosy too. Rosy was my baby, and seeing how much genuine love and care Dr. Sarah had for her was incredibly heartwarming. You can truly see and feel how deeply she loves animals. She gave us all the time in the world to say goodbye and allowed me to make every decision about the next steps when I was ready. She made an unbearable moment just a little bit easier, and for that, I will never be able to thank her enough. Without me even needing to say the words, she understood when I was ready to say goodbye to my baby forever and comforted me through the hardest moment of my life. I am so thankful that she was the one there during Rosy’s final moments. She will forever have a special place in all our hearts for the work she does and the kindness she showed Rosy and us. She allowed us to carry my baby into the box and out to the car ourselves. The next morning, I decided I wanted to do a witness cremation. I immediately texted Dr. Sarah and received a reply within minutes. She personally helped place a hold on Rosy and even called and emailed the crematorium herself to ensure everything would be arranged. I was drowning in grief, yet she took that burden into her own hands and helped make it possible for me to see Rosy one last time before cremation. Because of Dr. Sarah, I was able to create more keepsakes and have a witness cremation a few days later. I truly cannot find the words to express how much that meant to me. Thank you, Dr. Sarah, from the bottom of my heart for treating Rosy and us with so much love and kindness. 🤍
Putting my beloved Avery down was the hardest day of my life. While there is no easy way to do that, Dr. Noe made the experience so much better. From the moment she came to my house, her calm presence put everyone at ease, including my dog. She was professional, yet spoke as if she had known Avery for years. She gave us as much time as we needed to say goodbye to our baby without feeling rushed. After Avery passed, Dr. Noe gave a heartfelt speech and hugged us all. I couldn't imagine having to euthanize in any other way.
Dr. Dzierga was so personable and caring. You can really tell she has a passion for animals. Losing my dog was so hard, but she made the experience bearable.
It has been over two weeks and I am still processing the loss of my best friend but one thing is for sure, Dr. Laurie Anne Walden was fantastic. Her kindness and compassion while explaining each step of the process are something I will never forget. I hope no one has to go through this but if the time comes, I highly recommend Dr. Walden.
He did a great job. He was kind, calm, explained everything thoroughly and checked for understanding. He was clear about the process and respected our mourning. Thank you Dr. Lane.
When Dr Martin arrived, my little guy Barney ran to the door to greet him like he did all guests. He even barked at him, before jumping up to him to get attention. Dr Martin greeted him back, warmly and sincerely. He was playful with Barney while explaining the process to us. Lane made a horrible no win situation more acceptable with his calm demeanor and soothing words. I can't thank Dr Martin enough for helping little Barney come to peaceful end to his life's journey.
Dr. DiGenova was very kind and respectful and gentle with our boy. My parents were really reluctant in having him put to sleep but after seeing how careful Dr. DiGenova was and how peaceful he was at the end they truly believed they made the right decision. I can’t thank her enough. After when he was ready to come home from the cremation Dr. DiGenova brought him back home to us. Thank You!
Dr. Norman was wonderful in helping our pet pass away peacefully at home. She was professional, compassionate and genuinely kind. We would highly recommend Dr. Norman and CodaPet for those looking for in home euthanasia services.
